Whatever is better for you. Both ways work, if you follow the instructions properly.
Do some researching, read and learn and decide then.

Try installing custom kernel, if it succeeds, then bootloader is unlocked.

No, thats not true. I "unlocked" my BL with S1tool and says bootloader unlock allowed: yes . But is unlocked already.
If is unlocked with oficial method i think it says: rooted. Correct me if im wrong
Anyway. Try to flash custom kernel maybe is already unlocked

If you patched your bootloader with S1 Tool, then it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes.

Isn't it for only debranding and flashing mobiles.As written on their site.
After using it will I be able to use all simcard.as they say
"unlocking is NOT supported by WotanClient software!"
Maybe they have changed terms or something, it worked on smokerman. Try to send PM on how he did to unlock network on his unit.
Hey guys I have a question for you. How can I know that my bootloader is unlocked? I saw this in the service menu: Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes so Is it unlocked? or there is another sign for this?
Sorry, but I never messed with the bootloader and I dont want to brick my phone :]
No its not unlocked.. its just showing that it can be unlocked..

BL unlock isn't something that happens on it's own without you trying to unlock BL,,
BTW, If in the Service Menu it's mentioned 'Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes', this means that your Bootloader is Locked
'Bootloader Unlocked - Yes'. This means it's unlocked..
Oh Okay thanks for your help :]

i have looked round for the answer myself, there seems to be alot of threads on this, all of them say no you can not unlock it unless using a payed method such as wotanserver also you most probably will need to sim unlock first, i think that then changes the status, well thats what i have read has happened to some, and a little something else the fw is the number such as 2.3.4 or 4.0.4, and the build number is the 4.1.b.431.
If you unlock it for any network using wotanserver it will unlock the bootloader aswell, I used them and it was fairly easy.

If you have unlocked your boot-loader then you have to re-lock it yourself until then it will be unlocked........... no matter if you flash stock or custom roms...........
to check dial *#*#7378423#*#*
then Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status
this will show whether its locked or unlocked.

No, there is no way to flash JB on locked BL.
You can unlock the bootloader using Sony official tool/website for unlocking bl
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
Before unlocking you can backup your TA partition, in case you wanted to give the phone to warranty. Later you can restore it - phone will be locked again and they will not know it was unlocked.

I dont think you should feel sad because of that. My bl can be unlocked, but after using custom kernel for 2days my phone became unusuable dur to extreme lags. That's why i stay with stock ROMS. They are good enough .
